for some stupid reason the hyperlink don't work (or is it the curse word mac i am using!) maybe the address is tooooo long?
Anyway all the car needs is two r5 gt turbo engines think of the power to weight with two standard 120bhp engine let alone two mildly tuned one!!!!! MENTAL
240bhp in a car that weighs 700kg?

Looks like a good start to an awsome project - one thing they missed off the 'to do list' is ducting for the rear engine.........it's gonna get mighty hot mightly quick the way it is!!

I like long walks, especially when they're taken by people I don't like.

There's some dodgy laws about twin engined cars. I'm pretty sure it's illegal to use both engines at the same time, but anyone serious would need to check first.

That's an interseting point, and one that's confused me for ages. I've heard from several different sources that running a vehicle with two engines is illegal on the public highway, but then I've also seen a lot of twin engined cars on the road. Westfield actually build a twin bike engined car that's road legal.....is there a different law for kit cars? I can't see why it would illegal to be honest - as long as the conversation was properly checked before it was deamed road worthy....is there a specific reason why you can't have two engines running in the same vehicle?
